• General and administrative costs rose to $15.2 million (Q2) and $49.4 million (six months), driven by $34.1 million in make-whole stock awards and a $4.5 million extraordinary bonus.

• Exploration and development costs increased to $8.6 million (Q2) and $18.2 million (six months), reflecting expanded drilling and stock awards.

Outlook and guidance

• Drilling to accelerate at Brimstone and Vortex with two additional rigs in Q3 2026, totaling four rigs; focus remains on expanding high-grade silver systems and evaluating underground mining.

• Evaluating a potential high-grade mining scenario, including the design of an exploration decline to support future underground mining operations.

• Advancing test work and evaluation of roasting versus pressure oxidation to optimize development economics.

• No significant revenues expected until technical work and mine development are complete.

• Current cash balances deemed sufficient to fund planned activities for the foreseeable future.
